’Anger, arson, beatings, blindness, deception, drowning, fighting, floods, fornication, hanging, idols, incest, incurable diseases, leprosy, multiple partners, murder, slaughter of men women and children, supernatural beings, torture...’Is this the next Netflix or Amazon Prime series - nope - it’s the Bible!What would Christians say if there was a film based on the above list? There would be outrage, myriad letters flowing through the doors of film industry, TV, radio stations...I doubt it! I remember when Monty Python’s The Life of Brian first came on to the circuit. Trying to get churches, let alone individual Christians to sign a petition was a nightmare!The bible is about real life, yet when anyone questions it, the ’tut tuts’ are far from being silent. How many Christians have honestly thought about the belief they say they have, and what it is based on? How do we ’defend’ the millions slaughtered through wars or civil unrest, or the millions drowned, millions with diseases.

  • I Said I’d Be Back
    David Napier
    As I started this book, Easter has just passed, the usual sermons offered, the resurrection of Jesus suddenly took on a new life (no pun intended): I wrote a small book on the crucifixion last year, and felt the need to write this one too, not so much as a follow up, for they are naturally very much interlinked - but if Jesus never died there would be no resurrection; no resurr...

  • Unbelievable gods?
    David Napier
    At just short of 70 I have been around too long to be bothered by people thinking I am crazy, especially when I ofttimes tell them of my waking thoughts. This one woke me at 5am: possibly because I started watching the TV series of Smallville, the exploits of the young Superman. Most ’normal people’ watched this many years ago, but I am not an aficionado of TV so wouldn’t have ...

  • Few Letters
    David Napier
    Whenever I read the bible, I automatically try to think of the verse or passage being read in today’s speak, attempting to see any parallels between then and now. Thus, if John was writing these letters today would he be self-publishing, using YouTube, TikTok or whatever was the social media flavour of the month? It is too ’easy’ to forget to think like this, yet, if there are ...

His wife, Lady Arlene, would say he loves the titles, even though she doesn’t ...

  • The Burning Issue
    David Napier
    In discussion with some family members, there was no option apart from burial; when I started to discuss the issue further, the conversation was cut short - they had made up their minds and that was that. This is quite a common experience, whether believers or not. As will be discussed, I care not how I am disposed of, but as of writing this, my main ’preference’ would be crema...

  • Sonworshippers
    David Napier
    I started writing this offering as that strange yellow globe shone in the sky above Wales, a sight which is as rare as spotting a Dodo shopping in a local store! Ok, not quite that bad, but it did make me wonder how many of us worship the Son (Jesus) as much as we worship the sun. Logically or spiritually, there is no comparison to be made, but it helped me consolidate some tho...
